We break down Mike's cringe-worthy spring break arrival in flashy Ocean Pacific beachwear, Eleven's brutal roller rink bully scene where Angela drenches her with a milkshake to the tune of “Wipe Out,” and her raw reaction as she strikes back—no powers needed. Meanwhile, Joyce and Murray decipher the mysterious Russian doll message and learn Hopper is alive but tortured in a Kamchatka prison, prompting a desperate rescue mission. Back in Hawkins, Nancy and Robin interview Victor Creel (Robert Englund in a Freddy Krueger–esque cameo) to uncover the Upside Down clues behind the deaths—including the gruesome demise of Chrissy and Eddie's frantic confession to friends at Family Video. We also dive into Freddy-inspired nightmares, Eddie's emotional breakdown, fan theories, and all those sweet callbacks to D&D lore in the Upside Down. Featuring the stellar cast—Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Sadie Sink, David Harbour, Winona Ryder, Natalia Dyer, Maya Hawke—this reaction is loaded with spine-tingling moments, character theories, and Stranger Things nostalgia that you can't miss!

Send us a textWhat if the exhaustion you feel despite a full night's sleep isn't just poor sleep quality, but something actively draining your energy? Drawing from both decades of personal experience and years of helping others, I explore the hidden realm of sleep protection and why it should be as fundamental to your nightly routine as brushing your teeth.Sleep isn't merely about rest—it's when we're most vulnerable to energetic interference. Think of Freddy Krueger from "Nightmare on Elm Street"—while fictional, this dream demon captured something real about how certain entities can invade our dreams, feeding off our fear and manipulating our dream experiences. Having battled dream invasions since childhood, I've finally found techniques that protect my energy and now share these with you.The signs of energetic interference often disguise themselves as everyday problems: constant arguing with loved ones, uncontrollable cravings, addiction patterns, making choices that don't align with your true self, or that frustrating feeling that every time you get ahead, something pulls you back down. These aren't simply bad luck or character flaws—over 90% of people experience these dark force issues without recognizing them for what they are. When we protect our energy, especially during sleep, these patterns can dramatically change.By implementing proper sleep protection like Astral Armor, you'll notice profound differences in your clarity, relationships, and manifestation abilities. You'll wake up more energized rather than drained, with your emotions and thoughts truly your own. This isn't about fear—it's about empowerment. Once these forces realize they can't affect you, your entire life experience transforms. Ready to reclaim your energy and protect your most vulnerable moments? This episode offers the first steps toward energetic sovereignty during sleep and beyond.Ready for the full DF training / coaching? Grab your spot in Light it UP!

Tudo farei para ser o ar que respiras. Querias oxigénio, eu sei. Mas vais ter de levar comigo no estado gasoso a insuflar os teus alvéolos pulmonares.Serei o sonho que vem da noite te abraçar, como um Freddy Krueger de corsários brancos e túnica. Porquê? Porque os teus olhos a mim são fatais. Quem mandou a tua luz me enfeitiçar? Temos de estar juntos antes que o tempo se acabe. Porque o fim está próximo. Sou um boneco de neve e tenho a certeza que vou derreter quando os teus lábios tocarem nos meus ou se a temperatura subir acima dos zero graus. Perdoa se peço de mais.

Welcome back to A Podcask of Amontillado, where we delve into the dark, dreadful, and terrifying parts of the world. Three, Four, better lock your door . . . After a failed attempt to get revenge, and a new body, Freddy has gone back to doing what he loves, murdering teenagers! But now, he's playing on their weaknesses, laying out more one-liners, and evolves into the MTV driven, pop culture icon that we know and love. So get your Hypnocil, and a spoonful of Sanka, as Erin & Gary are joined by Superman expert and Freddy Fan Michael Bailey from The Fortress Of Baileytude Podcasting Network to discuss A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors and A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master!

This week on Summer Slash, Johnny Spoiler bites into a forgotten Polish vampire gem, I Like Bats, and slashes through the meta madness of Wes Craven's New Nightmare—the Freddy movie where reality and horror collide like never before.
Send us a textFew faces are as hauntingly iconic in the world of horror as that of Pinhead, the demonic leader of the Cenobites in Clive Barker's Hellraiser universe. And while Doug Bradley originally brought the role to life, it was Paul T. Taylor who dared to don the pins in 2018's Hellraiser: Judgment, ushering the legendary villain into a new chapter for a new generation of horror fans. His performance captured the cold intellect, sadistic elegance, and terrifying calm that fans had come to love—earning him a place in the horror pantheon.But Taylor's talents extend far beyond the hellish dimension of the Hellraiser universe. With roles in films like Sin City, Super, and various television and stage productions, Taylor is a versatile performer who has spent decades sharpening his craft across genres. Still, it's his role as Pinhead that connected him deeply to the horror culture community—a passionate, loyal audience that celebrates practical effects, psychological depth, and the actors who bring monsters to life.Embraced by the Horror CommunityWithin the horror scene, Taylor is more than an actor—he's become a fan-favorite guest at conventions, signings, and horror-themed events around the country. He embraces the community with the same authenticity that fans bring to him, never shying away from the impact his portrayal of Pinhead has had. Whether it's discussing the philosophy of horror, the craftsmanship of effects work, or just sharing behind-the-scenes stories, Taylor brings heart and humility to a genre that's often misunderstood by outsiders.He's set to make an appearance at one of Missouri's biggest pop culture events, the ToyMan Show in St. Charles, MO, on Sunday, July 13, 2025. This massive gathering of collectors, fans, cosplayers, and creators will give attendees a chance to meet Paul T. Taylor in person—snap photos, get autographs, and dive into the dark lore of Hellraiser and beyond. He'll join other celebrity guests at this two-level celebration of all things toys, comics, horror, and nostalgia.The Barn Appearance: A Conversation with Tippy JoAhead of the ToyMan Show, Taylor sat down with Chad Winch and Brett Wiley of The Tippy Jo Show on The Barn Podcast Network for an exclusive and wide-ranging conversation. The episode dives deep into Taylor's time preparing for the role of Pinhead, his experiences on set, and his thoughts on how the horror genre has evolved over time. With genuine humor and insight, Taylor opens up about what it's like to become part of such a beloved (and feared) franchise—and what the future holds for him both inside and outside the horror realm.Whether you know him as Pinhead, a performer from Sin City, or simply as a devotewww.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttp://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn http://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarnThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and brought to you as always by The Barn Media Group.

The First Part in our Failure in Teamwork Trilogy Some might say that the failure in teamwork starts with one host being bullied by the other into doing an episode on A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS. All because the bullied host said he finally got around to the first entry into this ESTEEMED franchise and expressed enthusiasm for the original film. And here we are with a discussion on the merits of a deleted scene where Freddy Krueger has boobs. Teamwork.

On the latest episode of the Some Dude… Podcast, hosts Mike B and J.R. Bang deliver an entertaining mix of humor, debate, and nostalgia as they tackle hot topics from music to sports and beyond. The episode kicks off with a spirited discussion about Jim Jones' appearance on Club Shay Shay with Shannon Sharpe, where Jones stirred controversy by claiming Nas wasn't relevant in today's music landscape. Mike and J.R. dissect Jones' claims, questioning if he suffers from “OGYN Syndrome” and debate the boundaries between confidence and trolling. Next, they are joined by HipHopWired's managing editor, Weso Omar, to break down the 2025 XXL Freshman List. Weso offers insider knowledge about the up-and-coming artists making waves, such as Jello and Ian, while sharing which selections surprised him and which overlooked talents deserved recognition. Shifting gears, the duo takes a hilarious trip down memory lane with retro 1-900 phone commercials. From LL Cool J's hotline to Freddy Krueger's chilling bedtime stories, Mike and J.R. reflect on the absurdity and cultural impact of these relics from the 1980s. The excitement builds as they explore the Clipse's highly anticipated musical renaissance. The hosts express their hype for the legendary duo's upcoming project, speculating on Pharrell's production and the group's return to top form. Finally, the podcast delves into sports as it celebrates the Oklahoma City Thunder's NBA championship victory. Mike praises the team's patience and development, while J.R. shares his concerns about their ability to maintain championship hunger. Packed with humor, personal takes, and cultural insights, this episode offers a perfect blend of nostalgia and contemporary relevance that fans won't want to miss.

¡Hemos llegado a la quinta película de la saga! Después de una pausa medio involuntaria repasando las películas de Freddy Krueger, Michelle nos acompaña para conversar a fondo sobre el primer guatazo en la saga. No porque la película esté (tan) mal, sino porque aquí se empezó a notar el agote tanto en el equipo creativo como en el público que no corrió al cine a ver esta entrega, como lo hizo con las anteriores. ¿El principio del fin? ¡Ya lo veremos!

Send us a textKatie and Bridget keep each other awake as they rewatch the 80's horror classic: A Nightmare on Elm Street! Come along as we meet Nancy, an allegedly 15 year old teenager, who begins to have nightmares about Freddy Krueger, a bumbly serial killer with finger knives! Ah! When her friend Tina, her boyfriend Glenn, and the local menace Rod all have similar dreams of the same man then everybody starts dying! Seriously - there's lots of cool deaths in this movie with lots and lots of blood. Nobody believes Nancy when she tries to tell everyone who the killer is - not even her Mom who murdered the damn guy and is keeping his finger knife glove in her basement as a trophy - spoiler alert! It's up to Nancy to do all the research, make all the booby traps, and fight back against Freddy in her dreams. Seriously, should Nancy be the chief of police instead of her father!? Released in 1984, it was written and directed by Wes Craven and stars Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, Robert Englund, John Saxon, Amanda Wyss, Jsu Garcia, and Ronee Blakley.

In this episode, Aran and Tom dive deep into the foggy dreamscape of 2010's A Nightmare on Elm Street reboot — a film that dared to recast horror icon Freddy Krueger and reimagine the franchise for a new generation.With Robert Englund stepping aside for Jackie Earle Haley's darker, more sinister take on Freddy, the reboot introduced updated visual effects, modern horror sensibilities, and a much more controversial origin story that split fans down the middle.We explore the production choices, the tonal shift, and the legacy (or lack thereof) of this infamous remake. Was it a misunderstood update or a soulless clone?Tune in as we dissect the dream logic, the backlash, and the future of Freddy's nightmares.

While New Nightmare has its moments of creativity and strong performances, it ultimately falls short of delivering the thrills and chills that fans expect from a Nightmare on Elm Street film. It's a thought-provoking entry in the franchise, but one that lacks the cohesive storytelling and visceral scares that made the original films classics. For die-hard fans of the series, it may be worth a watch, but for those seeking a truly terrifying experience, it may leave you wanting more.

There's no denying Nightmare's place in horror history. It birthed a legend, introduced a terrifying concept, and proved that low-budget horror could be wildly imaginative. But as a film, it's best appreciated with caveats. It's not airtight. It's not consistently scary. But it is audacious, and sometimes that's enough to earn a nightmare or two.

The slasher series without a slasher returns for its sixth instalment, fourteen years after we last saw it. Where Halloween gave us Michael Myers, Friday the 13th, Jason Voorhees, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddy Krueger, Final Destination made death the villain - perhaps more accurately, Death, but we never see a cloaked man wielding a scythe. Where the figure of the slasher killer could, in principle, be evaded and even beaten, Final Destination's Death, non-corporeal and omnipresent, carries a key threat of inevitability. Nobody escapes Death. In each Final Destination film, one character's premonition of catastrophe gives them the chance to save themselves and others from death, but Death won't take being cheated lying down, and sets its sights on pursuing its near-victims to the graves they're currently avoiding. How? Through elaborate, Rube Goldberg-esque accidents, of course. We discuss the ways in which Final Destination Bloodlines' set pieces work, how they focus on small moments and individual stories, and how they're a nightmare for the naturally anxious. José isn't shy of expressing his dislike of the film; Mike, the opposite, and he does his best to explain the appeal of watching so many people perish in such gruesome ways. We even ask whether a slasher series could be made with which José would see eye to eye, and imagine what it might look like. Recorded on 20th May 2025.
Neeraj Nagarkatti shares his journey from co-authoring a joke book with his brother as a child to performing multilingual comedy around the world. He discusses performing stand-up in up to six languages conversationally, including a memorable Mandarin set in London while dressed as Freddy Krueger. Neeraj talks about the challenge and creativity involved in telling jokes across different cultures and languages, likening it to learning a song in a foreign tongue. He talks about the importance of having passions outside of work, how his comedy has opened up new conversations with colleagues, and the joy of connecting multiple interests. Neeraj encourages listeners to find their own "And," suggesting that sharing personal interests at work can foster deeper connections. Episode Highlights · Neeraj performs stand-up comedy in multiple languages, using his skills in up to six languages conversationally and several others at a basic level, which adds a distinctive layer to his personal and professional life. · Initially hesitant, Neeraj began sharing his comedy journey with colleagues as he became more confident, which opened up more conversations and connections at work. · Neeraj emphasizes that having interests and passions outside of your primary profession is essential—it brings creativity, breaks the monotony, and adds depth to your identity. · He suggests starting interest-based clubs or groups at work—like language exchanges or baking clubs—because you'd be surprised how many colleagues share your passions or are curious about them. · Whether in comedy, tax consulting, or learning languages, Neeraj finds that creativity thrives when you allow various aspects of your personality and interests to intersect, making both work and life more enriching.

Most children outgrow monsters under the bed—this kid just watched them relocate the landscaping. From a shrub that ripped itself out of the soil and strolled across the sidewalk to jump‑rope ghost kids politely waving from the bedroom wall, one Albuquerque duplex became a paranormal playground no adult ever noticed. Add a neon, see‑through Freddy Krueger peering from a floor heater, a mute clown perched on the backyard wall, toys battling gladiator‑style at 3 a.m., and a Lady in White who thought bath time was BYO‑specter, and you've got a childhood scrapbook no therapist could label “normal.” This is a daily EXTRA from The Grave Talks.

In this razor-sharp episode of Three Guys and a Flick, we slice into the dream-stalking chaos of A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master! Join Don, Jon, and special guest Elyse as they crawl back into Freddy's twisted dreamscape to dissect one of the most gloriously over-the-top entries in the franchise.

From soul-sucking kisses to cockroach nightmares, we cover every deliciously bizarre kill and gory effect that made this 80s horror flick a VHS slumber party staple. Warning: Spoilers, bad puns, and deep dives into Freddy's fried psyche ahead.

Sleep tight, and whatever you do — don't miss this one.
1, 2, Freddy's coming for you… again! We're diving deep into the controversial 2010 remake of “A Nightmare on Elm Street” for its (almost unbelievable) 15th anniversary! Was Samuel Bayer's vision truly a nightmare, or an unfairly maligned attempt to resurrect the horror icon created by Wes Craven? We dissect the script rewrites from Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, Jackie Earle Haley's take on Freddy Krueger, and the performances of Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker, and Kellan Lutz. Joining in for this discussion after a long absence is our boy Donnie (@thedonnierequel on Instagram), who was one of the first guests of Back To The Blockbuster who helped turn it into what it is today. It's a dream having him back but is this remake a nightmare worthy of horror praise or is it a bad dream we'd all like to forget?

It's not just a movie plot from a Wes Craven film – it really happened, and inspired the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. (The Terrifying True Syndrome That Inspired A Nightmare on Elm Street) *** We're used to seeing someone on television or in movies die from a gunshot or stabbing, knowing they were just pretending – that the gun was using blanks, or the knife was using a retractable blade. But what we don't often hear are the times that those prop weapons end up killing someone for real. (Death By Movie Prop) *** How can a little girl disappear in a big crowd of people with no one seeing anything? Was it a case of stranger danger or did someone she know betray her trust? We'll look at the case of Beverly Rose Potts who went missing in 1951, never to be seen again. (Peril in the Park for Beverly Potts) *** Part medicine, part honey, part cannibalism… who or what was the mellified man? (The Mellified Man) *** They say that tragedy can change a person forever… and that couldn't be more true for one man who went from being considered lucky, to becoming deranged after a horrible accident, (The Hidden Wounds of Mr. Schultz) *** Famous last words. Humphrey Bogart said, “I should have never switched from Scotch to martinis.” Winston Churchill's last words were simply, “I'm bored with it all.” But sometimes what a person says on their deathbed can be shocking or outlandish – even if they aren't a celebrity. We'll look at a few unexpected deathbed moments.
